Interesting! Did the ruler make it all easier? Good work.

Very pretty Christmas twister.
|
Every time I see one of these twisters it makes me want to grab my twister - which has been sitting in the cupboard for over a year :o - and come up with something gorgeous such as that. Well done.

OMG! you actually sewed the whole quilt top and cut it up and sewed it back together again? nice job I don't think I could ever do one I get confuse easily LOL
|
You did a great job!! I've got the twister tool. Just haven't used it yet!! This makes me want to get it out and give it a try!

I apoligize for not including that in my first post. I usually remember. The Christmas squares were cut 10 square, or you can use layer cakes. The border was cut at 6 wide, so just a rough guess with 7 blocks across and 9 blocks down, and a 6 inch border, it would roughly be 78 wide and 97 long, and after cutting the twister blocks and sewing together, it is 58 by 74. I may add a dark 2 inch border just to add some width and length, sort of framing it out. Hope that answers your question.

I didn't think that I could do it either, with all previous directions that I had read, but these directions had you cut out one row at a time, so you didn't get things mixed up. After doing the first row, I realized that I could do 2 rows, and keep things straight. And now, I know that I am going to do at least one more of them. It was actually very quick and easy, once I got all the blocks cut. It would be easy with layer cakes, but I don't have access to them, and have lots of fabric to use up. So, PLEASE, anyone who has hesitated, go buy that 8 inch one, and give it a whirl. Not sure if I would do the smaller ones, now that I have done the bigger one. It does go fast, and is fun.

You couldn't do it without the ruler, which is very easy to use. When I give this back to my sister, I will get one of my own.
